That being said, Deja Dead was a pretty enjoyable read. I almost liked this Dr. Brennan better. She seemed more human and real to me. She is middle aged with a college aged doctor. She is divorcing her husband and there are hints that she may, at one time, had issues with alcohol. I like flawed characters because I find that I can connect with them more. I enjoyed the mystery and didn't have any idea who the killer was until the end. My only complaint about the book as all of the french terms and names. It was a little hard to keep track of them while listening to the audiobook.

I definitely liked this book enough to continue with the series. I am intrigued by Dr. Temperance Brennan and look forward to finding out more about her.
